end of school
I've decided to take a week off of blogging (and calorie counting). I hit the 128.5lb mark on the scale but will probably gain the 3lbs back. Very stressful week with the end of school and I had mother's day weekend at work. terribly bad for diets. I'll see you guys in a few days. Sorry for the lag.

Sunday
Sorry for the late updates again. I haven't really been feeling well lately and have been pretty stressed.
Breakfast:

started off my day with a naked juice. MMM for 240 calories.

then I made pancakes. I wanted to make surpreme style, but didn't have baking powder. Definitely on my shopping list. The whole mix recipe on the box was about 1326 calories, but we only used like half the mix. and Then I only had half of those pancakes. So I had a total of about 290 calories, because I had 3 1/2 pancakes.
Lunch:

Had a sloppy joe for lunch (353cal). I had previously frozen my sloppy joe mix and defrosted it. It was still really yummy.
Dinner:

Heirloom tomato salad sans cheese and croutons. I don't know I'd estimate this salad to be only like 150-200calories.

chicken, potatoes, broccollini, carrots. 3 pieces bread.I would say this was probably about 500 calories. It was very tasty.
Dessert:

mini triple D. I was really craving one. This is a half size, so it was about 300calories.
Total calories for the Day: 2006
Almost forgot I had a cup of cranberry juice for about 125cal.

Attack of the Triple D (Saturday)
So today was pretty busy at my first job and sort of slow at my second job. It still made me pretty tired though being on my feet all day pretty much. I did get to spend a little time at my mom's house between my jobs. My mom's puppy is so adorable and I taught him how to sit. It's great.
This is him at like 8-10weeks I believe. I couldn't get him to sit still at all at this point. I think he's closer to 14-16 weeks now.
Breakfast:

I had a large red D'anjou pear (about 150cal) and a Naked Juice (240cal). I really love pears and naked juice. I could drink naked juice all day long. I wonder if anyone's done like a naked juice diet...hmm..
Snack:
Throughout the day I snacked on those two Special K 90cal bars (180 total).
Lunch:

I forgot to take a picture of the sandwich, but I had an turkey sandwich on 9grain wheat w/ lite mayo, onions, lettuce, tomato, olives, pickles and spinach. I ate the whole Subway footlong. The picture above is actually of the oven roasted chicken one I had last week, but it looked pretty similar to that. I'll say it was about 600cal.
Snack:
While I was at work, I did snack on like 3 pieces of ciabatta bread. It was so tasty and about 150cal.
Dinner:
I forgot to take a picture again, but it was my taglietelle creation w/ the chicken and broccolli, garlic, and EVOO and I think maybe some parsley. I only ate half of it though, so it was about 225cal.
Dessert:

I called this one the "Decadent Diet Destroyer" because this tuxedo hot chocolate packs a LOT of calories. Just the cocoa part is 490calories. Then it's topped off with whipped cream which is cream and vanilla syrup whipped together. so all in all I would say it was about 600calories. It was so delish though!!
Total Calories for the Day: 2145
Well, I went over my calorie range for the day, but oh well. I need to start packing lunches, stay away from the "Triple D" and start eating breakfast. My coworker told me that if you skip breakfast, you actually end up getting fatter because all the food you eat later is just getting stored because you didn't warm up your metabolism in the beg of the day with breakfast. so lame. anyway, I'm SUPER SUPER tired, so I'm going to go to bed now. I have a few errands to run in the morning and I need to watch ANTM! Ciao!

Friday
Sorry this post is a day late. I was really tired last night and actually really tired tonite and dont want to do two posts, but I have to. They might be a little short winded though. So I apologize in advance if they're a little dry.
Breakfast:

Breakfast was pretty much a Guava rockstar (280cal). I can't remember, but I might have had a 90cal bar. Work was pretty busy so I didn't get to eat my lunch until late.
Lunch:

For lunch I had bought a ceasar salad w/ chicken from McD's. It would have been a total of 305 calories w/ the dressing, but I ate at MOST like half my salad. So only about 152calories. I had to go to work right after that so I was pretty bummed out that I wasn't too interested in my salad.
Dinner:

For dinner, I had Risotto w/ chicken and asparagus and cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. The risotto is made with veggie stock and salt and pepper. I didn't eat the cherry tomatoes though. I would estimate that my meal was about 800calories. I really couldn't tell you how many calories risotto has though because as I've mentioned before we dont have nutritional info at work.
When I got home I was pretty tired so I dont think I had any snacks. I really cant remember now. I think I might have had a couple pieces of bread at work too though..lemme think hard. I might have, I'll just add on another 100calories.
Total calories: 1422 Another bad day for calories. I really need to start packing lunches at my other job.
